Unless the discussion is the NCAA is a scam and the major universities complicit in completely selling out their original mission for dollars and success on the field, not sure what there is to discuss.

The closing paragraph on the SI piece:

At Oklahoma State the bonus system, the booster and coach payouts, and the bogus jobs provided players with money that was seldom spent on extravagances. One or two standouts bought a new car or expensive jewelry, team members say, but the vast majority of the players used the extra cash to purchase everyday items -- food, clothing, tickets to a movie. "There were some athletes who were almost starving," says Carter. "Wherever the money came from, they were like, Yeah, I'll take that."

Changing grades, tests never taken, grading easier, taking lesser versions of the same tests. This stuff happens all the time. They'll catch a stiff scholarship reduction after a year plus of ham-handed investigation.

Under Les Miles, membership in Orange Pride, the football program's hostess group, tripled at the organization became a key recruiting tool. Players say that a small number of women in the group had sex with recruits. Says Artrell Woods, a Cowboys wide receiver from 2006 to '08, "The idea was to get [recruits] to think if they came [to OSU] it was going to be like that all the time, with all these girls wanting to have sex with you."

Jason Whitlock has a lot to say about this...I find his tirade about the "investigators" more interesting than the investigation. Some of the stuff is probably true, some of it exaggerated, but none of it is "new."
